Exclude /metrics route

[piks2252]

Hello,
First of all thank you so much for this library, I appreciate you hard word,
Now i don't want to display /metrics request in my grafana dashboard, Is there any way to exclude /metrics route
I tried app.use("/((?!metrics))*", promBundle({includePath: true}));, but It blocks the /metrics and returns no route found which was the only access point (target) for my Prometheus server to access metrics data.
I just want to exclude "/metrics" path in my collection which is polluting my app's APIs.
Thanks

Hi. The /metrics path is excluded automatically, you don't need to do anything. Have you tested it?

HI @disjunction, Thanks for your quick reply. @piks2252 and me works on same team.
please find the attachment, "/metrics" is retained in my data metrics and same is being scraped by Prometheus server, which is polluting our business/app APIs.

I'm afraid it's due to the way you use the module or a potential conflict with multiple prom clients. Could you provide the how the prom-client and express-prom-bundle are defined in your project.json and also how you call promBundle() in your app?

[disjunction]

... and if you do anything directly with prom-client, please mention it too

Hi @disjunction ,Thanks. we were running swagger-stats as well in our Application server.
after removing, it worked fine.
It would be better If you can mention in the readme, will be helpful for others.
